House soiling can occur in any location of a home, but sometimes pet parents will notice that their dog soils more in certain locations. irishdancer0215 Tue, 10 Aug 2010 17:18:05 GMT http://www.aspcabehavior.org/articles/6/Urine-Marking-in-Dogs-.aspx Some dogs scent mark by urinating small amounts on vertical surfaces, usually while raising a leg. Both female and male dogs can urine mark. Dogs who urine mark might do so in a number of situations, including while on walks, when in their own homes and yards, and during visits to other locations. A dog must be at least three months of age to urine mark. irishdancer0215 Tue, 10 Aug 2010 17:16:51 GMT http://www.cesarsway.com/news/cesarspeaks/Barking-Up-the-Wrong-Tree I get questions about barking almost every day. And unlike other common behavior problems, with barking it’s almost always the same problem and solution. What I tell people is this – barking is natural! It’s one of the most important ways dogs communicate. Energy is their main form of communication, but some barking is normal. It can be a form of warning or protection; it can be to let others know “this is my territory;” and it can even be a form of excitement, such as when a dog barks when he wants a ball. The bottom line is simple – as the pack leader, you should be able to control the barking if it becomes excessive or obsessive. And if it’s normal barking, it isn’t something that you’d consider “a problem.” irishdancer0215 Tue, 31 Aug 2010 03:10:10 GMT http://www.cesarsway.com/tips/trainerscorner/Behaviors-to-Avoid-During-the-Walk?utm_source=mobilestorm&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Aug10NL_3A When going for a walk with my dogs, that is what I go to do – walk. Too often I see dog owners going out on a walk but the aim is to let the dog go to the bathroom. Now in some cases that may be the only way to do this as the owner lives in an apartment – but – the moment you begin to take your dog out and allow him to sniff at every lamp post, fire hydrant and tree, you are encouraging him to begin the habit of marking territory. irishdancer0215 Sun, 15 Aug 2010 15:48:56 GMT http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2011/07/110707092443.htm Imported irishdancer0215 Sun, 10 Jul 2011 01:27:01 GMT http://dogs.about.com/od/dogbehaviorproblems/tp/Top-Ten-Common-Dog-Fears-And-Phobias.htm Dogs can suffer from a number of different fears and phobias. These phobias can have a variety of causes, including lack of early socialization, genetics, or a negative experience. A dog's fears and phobias may lead to signs such as cowering, trembling, drooling, barking, destructive behavior, and, in some cases, aggression. irishdancer0215 Fri, 06 Aug 2010 00:21:19 GMT http://dogtime.com/dog-speak-greetings-colleen-safford.html Looking at dog to dog interactions and behavior , the same rules hold true.
